Our data confirm the existence of functional lymphatic drainage via the uveoscleral pathway and conjunctiva in the mouse. Cells within the ipsilateral submandibular lymph node respond to stimuli upstream. This reaction could potentially be manipulated to improve graft survival.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
